It's bedtime and Lauren's room is, of course, dark. Remembering her preference, I switch on a nightlight...
Lauren: But my Lambie doesn't like the darkmess, mama, remember?
Mama: I know, honey -- don't worry, I fixed the darkness.
Lauren: DarkMESS, mama.
Mia pulls a new book from a kid's meal bag full of warm take-out food...
Mama: Wow, Mia! That book looks really cool!
Mia: This is a HOT book, to be exact.
Justin is wrestling with the girls; Lauren is perched on his back, looking down into his ear when I hear him yell in disgust...
Mama: Lauren, we don't put our boogers into other people's ears, okay?
Lauren: No no no no...I just dropped it in there.
I'm calling Justin on my cell phone after leaving my OB checkup....
Me: I'm so excited! I only gained two pounds since last time! I was sure it would be worse!
Him: Nuh-uh -- that can't be right...those scales must need to be recalibrated.
(I personally think he deserved MORE boogers in his ear after that last comment.)
Oh no he didn't! ;)
ReplyDeleteHonestly laughed out loud at Lauren's booger claim!
ReplyDeleteOooohhh, Justin!!! It's a good thing he's such a nice guy most of the time!
ReplyDeleteYes, I think he needs more boogers in his ear too! Good thing that conversation was over the phone and not in person-he might have gotten hurt ;)
ReplyDeleteYes, some more boogers are definitely in order:)
ReplyDeleteSurely, being a loving and smart man who lives in a house filled with ladies, he meant that you couldn't possibly have gained a whole two pounds! Surely!
ReplyDeleteI love darkmess. A lot.
